The Power of An Hour! Be an In-School Mentor!

Make a difference in the life of a child in as little as one hour a week by volunteering to be an In-School Mentor. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Peel in partnership with the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board matches elementary girls and boys with a caring adult mentor. Matches meet for one hour each week from September – June during school hours and on school property to share in fun activities such as playing board games, baking or playing sports. The result – increased self esteem, better grades and improved relationships with family and peers.

Children are in need of mentors in our schools and we need your help. You can make a significant difference by volunteering or encouraging your friends and family to mentor a child in a school in their neighborhood. The In-School Mentoring Program is currently offered in 25 Catholic schools across Peel.
